LOVED YOU FIRST // N.H.

Chapter 21

Brooke's POV

It's been two months since the divorce happened. My life is still pretty much the same as it was before it. Nothing much has changed besides the obvious fact that I'm single now. I've found myself a small apartment near Jenna's house, even tho I don't plan on staying here in London any longer than I have to. Everyone is aware of my situation and my boss decided that it would be good for me if she would transport me to work in New York. Of course, out of all the countries in this world, she sends me to freaking America, the place I want to avoid at any costs in case he's there. I don't even watch the media anymore because I'm scared that I'll see him on the news and my heart will break even more than it's already broken. Alex and I are still in good terms, we still talk at least once a day. He met this girl at work and he really likes her. I was so happy for him that he's starting to move on since it seems that I can't because of how my heart is broken and it's only craving for one person's love. I was done with packing my suitcase when Jenna knocked on the door before entering inside. 
'' Hi babe, are u ready to go? '' she asked as she sat down on the couch. '' Almost '' I said. '' I still have some things to pack inside the boxes and I'll be ready. You're sure I can leave these things at your place? '' Jenna rolled her eyes '' Of course, stop worrying about it so much. '' Sigh left my lips as I did the finishing touches around my suitcase. The fact that I'm leaving London for New York still hasn't fully sat down on me. Never in a million years, I thought it'd happen to me. When it was finally time for me to leave, Noah and Jenna helped me carry my suitcases to the car before they drove me to the airport. I said my goodbyes to them, making Jenna promise me she won't cry since this isn't like we won't see each other ever again. A couple of hours later, my plane landed and I was on a way to my new apartment. The taxi driver was really nice so I gave him a good tip as I paid him for the drive. When I entered my new apartment my mouth fell open of how much this building was actually fancy and big. I dropped my bags on the floor before I went to check every room inside the apartment. Damn, I think I might like my apartment here even more than the one I have in London. I grabbed my phone and texted Jenna letting her know that I landed safely and that I made it to my new apartment.  Shortly after I texted her, she decided to facetime me. 
'' Hi babe, how's New York? '' she asked me excitedly. '' It's really nice so far I've seen. Oh, I need to show you the apartment,  when I saw it I honestly thought I entered someone else's apartment. '' She chuckled and I stood up from the couch and started showing her around the apartment, room by room. Jenna seemed as much as excited as me and that made me happy. I already missed London so much and I've only been gone for a few hours now. We spoke for a little while more before I had to go unpack myself and go explore New York a little. Fuck, I forgot I'll have to drive on the left side of the road here in America, fuck. I'll have to just get used to it, whether I like it or not. I changed my outfit and finished unpacking my suitcase before I went for a walk around the block. 

A few days have passed and so far it's been good. I've been going to work every day and I'm enjoying it. What a surprise. People at work have been actually really nice to me and my boss isn't that bad as I feared she'd be. Slowly, I was getting used to living in New York. Besides their orange Cheeto of a president, America wasn't that bad. Tomorrow I'm gonna have my first interview. Today I'm just preparing some of the questions I'm probably gonna ask tomorrow. Jenna is always excited for me whenever I tell her something about the job. She and Noah are planning to come and visit me this weekend. They said they'll probably gonna stay here for a couple of days since Noah isn't filming anything right now, so they don't need to rush anywhere and could take their time. When I got home later that day, I decided to make myself a bubble bath since I haven't taken one in a while. While the bath was filling with water, I poured myself a glass of my favourite wine, grabbed my favourite chocolate all that while I was deciding on which movie should I watch on Netflix. After deciding on watching Someone Great, I took everything I needed into my bathroom and was ready for some relaxing time. As soon as I stepped into my bath, Jenna decided to facetime me. Even though I was annoyed I still answered her. " Hello, interrupter of a "me" time. " I chuckled while Jenna rolled her eyes at me. " So this is how you're preparing for a big first interview, huh? " " Oh please I've been working my ass for weeks now preparing for this. I needed some relaxation. " Before she could say anything dirty I interrupted her. " Do not say anything dirty or I'm ending this facetime. " She groaned. " I hate you sometimes. You're not fun. " " Yeah yeah, whatever. Why'd you called? I mean not that I mind it's you literally only facetime me when you wanna show me something. So what's up? " " Well I just wanted to show you this cutie. This is Thor. " She said as she lifted up a golden retriever puppy. " We're currently fostering him until someone adopts him. Unless Noah decides to let me keep him. " She said loudly the last part, clearly wanting Noah to hear her. I chuckled at her, waving at the puppy. " Hi baby, you're adorable. " Noah and Jenna argued about how he doesn't want to leave the puppy alone all the time while they are at work. Sometime later we ended the facetime and I finished my bath, dressing into my pyjama. I fell asleep while watching Netflix. Next day I woke up and decided to go to my favourite café and eat breakfast there to finish my last preparation before the interview so I could be fully prepared no matter who it is. Little did I know what would happened I would never be this excited for it. But let's go back to this. Ordering pancakes and laté for my breakfast, I was in full working mode already and I wasn't even at work yet. About an hour later after finishing my meal and paying for it, I made my way towards my work. When I got there I still had some time before the interview. By the talks in the office, I realised that someone big was coming. It kind of made me anxious but I was still pretty buzzed for it.  Finally, it was time for the interview. It was Hailee Steinfeld,  to my surprise. I wasn't the biggest fan of her but she was a sweet girl. We talked for a bit before, to get to know each other a little and I asked her if she had any topics she didn't want me to ask her about. She said she was fine with everything as long as it isn't way too personal, which was reasonable. When we started the interview, I asked her about her movies and acting career a little before I asked her about her music. 

'' So Hailee, do you have a special someone who's your muse for the songs? '' She laughed, before answering me. '' Well I wouldn't say that he's really a muse, but he is an inspiration for some of the songs in my upcoming album. '' she giggled. I could really see her eyes sparkle as she talked about that special someone. '' Well if it isn't a secret, who is that special someone? '' Hailee looked at someone in the backstage, I assumed it was her manager or that boyfriend. '' I guess I can reveal the name. He's actually here with me backstage, you all probably know him. '' She smiled. '' It's Niall Horan. '' she blushed as she said his name and nothing in this world would've prepared me for this answer. Leftovers of my already broken heart shattered even more as she said his name. The name I least expected her to say. And worse of it all was the fact that he was also here.
